<a name="gdk-pixbuf-Animations.description"></a><h2>Description</h2>
<p>The GdkPixBuf library provides a simple mechanism to load and
represent animations. An animation is conceptually a series of
frames to be displayed over time. The animation may not be
represented as a series of frames internally; for example, it may
be stored as a sprite and instructions for moving the sprite around
a background. To display an animation you don't need to understand
its representation, however; you just ask GdkPixBuf what should
be displayed at a given point in time.</p>

play forward.</p>
<p>As a shortcut, pass <a href="/home/mclasen/gnome/share/gtk-doc/html/glib/glib-Standard-Macros.html#NULL:CAPS"><code class="literal">NULL</code></a> for the current time and <a href="/home/mclasen/gnome/share/gtk-doc/html/glib/glib-Date-and-Time-Functions.html#g-get-current-time"><code class="function">g_get_current_time()</code></a>
will be invoked on your behalf. So you only need to explicitly pass
<em class="parameter"><code>current_time</code></em>
 if you're doing something odd like playing the animation
at double speed.</p>
<p>If this function returns <a href="/home/mclasen/gnome/share/gtk-doc/html/glib/glib-Standard-Macros.html#FALSE:CAPS"><code class="literal">FALSE</code></a>, there's no need to update the animation
display, assuming the display had been rendered prior to advancing;
if <a href="/home/mclasen/gnome/share/gtk-doc/html/glib/glib-Standard-Macros.html#TRUE:CAPS"><code class="literal">TRUE</code></a>, you need to call <a class="link" href="gdk-pixbuf-Animations.html#gdk-pixbuf-animation-iter-get-pixbuf" title="gdk_pixbuf_animation_iter_get_pixbuf ()"><code class="function">gdk_pixbuf_animation_iter_get_pixbuf()</code></a>
